I have done many virtual speeches, but I am doing this video not as a virtual speaker, but as an attendee of a virtual conference. I just attended Asia Professional Speakers Convention – a five-day virtual conference on speaking and I decided to create this video to talk about all the advantages (!) of doing and attending a conference virtually.

I am sure you will like the positive message at the end for speakers.

ps. This is episode 297 of Professional Speaking. Soon I will reach the milestone of 300 episodes. As one of the people who follow these episodes I would like to ask you one simple question: Do you find value from me creating these videos for you every week? If so, what? I would love to hear from you.

For this week’s episode of Professional Speaking I will not show a video I made, but instead share a video of 13-year old Brayden Harrington’s speech from the 2020 Democratic Convention in the USA last night (Watch the 2-minute speech here: https://lnkd.in/dZC36u8)

To me, this video is a great reminder that even if the physical convention (or conference, or meeting) might have been canceled, the need to get the message out was not.

Employees in companies still need to be inspired, educated, motivated and informed. Just like the Democratic (and soon Republican) voters still need to rally around their candidate.

So, what if we can not meet at the moment? We still need to get the messages out.

That is something we as speakers have to remind ourselves of. But more importantly, it is a message that we need to take upon ourselves to spread to our clients and our potential clients.

How are you going to remind the market about the importance of using speeches to move people?

That is the message today from Professional Speaking with me, Fredrik Haren.
